L3 Cache Size and Performance Benefits
The L3 cache, also known as the shared cache, is a high-speed memory pool that is shared among the cores of a processor. The L3 cache helps to reduce the time required to access data by storing frequently used data in a fast, easily accessible location.
In the case of the Intel Xeon E5-2697V4, it has a large 45MB L3 cache, which provides a significant performance boost compared to processors with smaller cache sizes. The larger cache size helps to reduce the frequency of accessing data from the main memory, leading to faster processing times and improved overall performance, especially in data-intensive applications.
The benefits of having a larger L3 cache include improved processing speed, reduced latency, and increased system responsiveness. These factors make the Intel Xeon E5-2697V4 a powerful option for demanding data center workloads and high-performance computing applications.
